But instead of getting serious about ship-to-shore communication, Tesla blew the money on building his “World Telegraphy Center” out at Wardenclyff, Long Island, New York. It was an imposing building with a huge tower housing the Tesla coil transmitter. The communications center came to nothing and Morgan stopped the funds. Thereafter Tesla lived at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City and became a sort of self-absorbed lounge lizard. He dressed in a Tuxedo and top hat and mooched off his friends. In the following decades Tesla dabbled in inventing and came up with several interesting devices that were almost good enough to become standard technology.

For example, he designed a “bladeless turbine” heat engine, the functional equivalent of a steam engine or the internal combustion engine. There are few successful heat engine designs that are fundamentally different, so inventing a new one was an intellectual triumph. Unfortunately, Tesla’s heat engine was not as efficient as other methods and, so far, there have been no good uses for it. He also developed a speedometer gauge that was excellent and was used in several luxury cars. Converting the speed of a rotating shaft into smooth, linear needle movement is much harder than it looks. Unfortunately Tesla’s method was more expensive than the meter design that eventually became universally used for that purpose. Tesla ended up as a lonely old man feeding pigeons in a third rate hotel in New York.


After he died in 1943, it turned out that he had paid his rent for several months by giving the hotel manager a “death ray” to hold as collateral. Tesla told the manager the death ray was worth $10,000. The ray gun was actually a Wheatstone bridge, a sensitive resistance-measuring device commonly found in electrical labs.

Yes, the lights glowed just as he said, but damp soil, cows, people, barbed wire fences, and every other electric conductor within range would be heated with wasted energy, just like a microwave oven. Tesla built an enormous “Tesla coil” that produced radio frequency sparks 60 feet long. Always the showman, Tesla liked to be photographed sitting among the sparks and fire, while calmly reading a book. Actually, he used double exposures to create the illusion of sitting among the sparks. Tesla’s machine was so huge and had such unique capability that the U.S. Air Force built a copy of it 80 years later for research.

With all this dramatic futuristic activity, Tesla never got around to building the dinky ship-to-shore radio that Morgan was paying him to develop. When he gave Morgan a progress report, Tesla tried to sell Morgan on his futuristic schemes.

Morgan was furious at him for not sticking to the assignment and had little interest in any of Tesla’s ideas. Morgan did however force Tesla to assign him the ownership of any useful patents that might arise out of the work. Morgan was not known for generosity. After Morgan gave Tesla a tongue lashing, he also gave him a second chance.

Unfortunately, merely talking to ships was boring to Tesla. Tesla wanted to develop what he called “The World Telegraphy Center.” Tesla planned to set up a communications center that could not only talk to ships, but also to everyone else on earth. His vision of what he was trying to build sounds to modern ears like a one-way Internet or perhaps CNN.
He doesn’t seem to have thought about the difficulties of handling all the messages in the world through one single gigantic low frequency transmitter. Back then, there were no Internet servers to organize all that message traffic into digital streams of information.
Considering the operating frequency of his transmitters, his data rate would have been limited to a few kilobytes per second rather than the terabytes handled today by a single node on the Internet. Tesla’s radio transmitters were certainly adequate for transoceanic communication. But instead of also developing a sensitive radio receiver, Tesla spent nearly all his effort developing ever larger low frequency radio transmitters.
His transmitters were so powerful, he experimented with transmitting electric power as well as information. Tesla proposed using tuned coils to energize fluorescent light bulbs miles away from his transmitter. Yes, his idea worked, but only at an extremely low efficiency.

coils, checking the coils is the equivalent of turning it off and on again. Do that first always.

It's called corner bead. Definitely watch some videos on drywall and mudding. It's not hard to do an ok job, and at the worst you just sand it all down and do it again.

any EMT electricians here? Can i use these in a tight corner instead of a 90" pipe bend? i know these are used when you have more than 4 90's in a run but is there anything with only using these?
